And We're Back. . . Again
The UnderViewed is back in action.
To get things re-started, let’s check out what’s happening at the Plaistow Town Hall. I keep expecting Leslie Knope to appear somewhere.

Boom Goes the Water Bottle
Dry ice + water = nifty little explosion. Not much else to it.

Baby Bear Film Critic
This bear does not give a favorable review to Where the Wild Things Are.
The bigger question is: why do these people own a baby bear? And the more important question than that: where can I get one?
Side note: that is one enormous cat. It’s unfortunate we don’t get to see it fight the bear. That would have been epic.

The Greatest Love of All. . .
Is that between a young Asian woman and an older man in a home-made tank top, jean shorts, and handlebar mustache. A classic love story. Wow.
You can just feel the chemistry for this couple: they just look perfect and absolutely right for each other and will “cheerish” each other FOREVER.
A lot of love went into making this video. You can tell by the amount of star wipes—actual stars, not just the old school wipe. Ooh, and fireworks too.
For being a video proclaiming one’s love for another, there are very few pictures of the couple actually together. Something to do with customs and visas perhaps?

NOT a Substitute for Medical Advice
But if you have lice, watch this video. Or if you’re a fan of jowls. Informative either way.

Mario Bros. Vs. Anthony Keidis
With a little OKGO, Star Wars, Lion King, nuclear annihilation, carousel music and Jimmy Kimmel Live nut-kicking thrown in. Makes even less sense after you watch it.
And remember: Joints are not what they used to be.

Mr. Wrong's Got it Going On
You must watch this music video.
How this hasn’t blown up yet, I don’t know. It’s got everything you need: funny lyrics, dancing girls, a twist ending. It’s a home run.

Fruit Salad: Yummy Yummy
What happens when you take a recipe for fruit salad, an anime Sims style video game, and what sounds like a Wiggles knock off?
This electric video.

Greatest Non-Sequitur Music Video of All Time
And I don’t think there’s any remotely close 2nd for that title.
My favorite moments: the club girl falling off the stage; the dancing grandma; the monkey getting spooked by its reflection; and especially the guy peeing on the frozen lake. Kanye wouldn’t interrupt if this won.

L'Shana Tovah, my Fellow Tribe Members!
In honor of the dawning of Year 5770, here’s a couple Underviewed Rosh Hashanah related videos:
When you find your Shofar, a black and white world will turn color.

Wowie Wee Kazowie!
The Santa Rosa Charter School is having an art show! Wowiez! Look at all the amazing things they’ve got on display! Stick around for the pig stop motion animation at the 2 minute mark. And the mesmerizing Hot Dog Man right after that. And the enthusiastic parrot.

Advance Your Career with Millipore
Everything about this video — the company name, the range of accents, the generic-looking footage of people working — makes me think Millipore is a fake corporation that’s going to play an important role in the next James Bond film.
But hey, they’re hiring. Plenty of openings for henchmen and cronies.

The Ho Chi Minh City Motor Speedway
No, this isn’t the start of a Vietnamese 10K BMX Race for the Cure, it’s just your standard minute-long green light.
Favorite part: check out the guy in the white shirt playing a successful game of real-life Frogger. Successful in that he didn’t kill himself. Kept his cool like Obama.

Zombie Lobster?
A lobster that looks cooked but isn’t. Could this be the start of an invasion of uncooked crustaceans?
Side note: I’ve never seen a lobster that looks so much like a comic book character before; he would definitely play Hellboy in the oceanic adaptation.

Cookies n' Creme: An Emo Love Story
Like the classic silent pictures of yore, this budding filmmaker takes us on a remarkable journey of love and loss, violence and reconciliation, using no words, just pop punk songs.
He really loves that Hershey’s bar. I was hoping he would delve into the reasons for stomping on it, but I guess I’ll have to wait for a Film Studies major to write a dissertation on it. Or the DVD commentary. The film’s mysterious elements evoke Eraserhead-era David Lynch while the romantic storyline would have made George Cukor proud.
